Ok first off if your still here thanks for reading =]

Chapter 9

A month had come and gone sense Merlins death. There had been no funeral because no one had been able to find Merlins body to burry. Gwen had been sad for a week or two before she announced that Merlin was gone, he wouldn't want any of them grieving over him, they should move on with their lives and finally not to forget Merlin had chosen to die like this. That statement had caused Arthur to loss all the control he had left, he yelled screamed and was about to throw her in the dungeons, he would have it Adianna hadn't come up and poured a jug of water on top of Gwen's head.

Gaius had been in shock a first. Like Arthur, Callum and Adianna he found the idea of the Merlin jumping off a cliff disturbing and hard to believe. He found it hard to work for a while but when the people grew sick and needed his help he accepted the son he never had was gone and returned to his work.

Callum, Adianna and Morgona never had time to grieve, a few silent tears and sad words were all they shared between each other. Arthur had become the living dead. He stopped speaking, he stopped eating. He stopped smiling. He stopped living. Arthur sat in his room day after day staring out of his window holding Merlins favourite neckerchief. He only ever responded Callum, Adianna and sometimes Morgona. The 3 had taken it upon themselves to care for him. Helpless and aloe Arthur would never admit how much he relied on them.

"The fool" Adianna looked up as her love burst into the room. Sense their promise to look after him, Callum had taken it upon himself to perform all of Arthur's duties, which included dealing with Uther. "What is it?" she asked wrapping her arms around his neck pulling him down for one sweet kiss. "Uther" he groaned pulling away to soon "what about him?" Callum sighed "he's appointed Arthur a new servant" Adianna laughed until she realised how serious she was "WHAT" she gasped "why would he, has he no IDEA what this will do to Arthur, he doesn't, even need a servant Morgona and I look are enough to look after him" she said in a rush "I Know" Callum frowned "when does this new servant start" Callum turned back to the door "any minute now" Adianna reached for his hand "we should go warn him then" Callum nodded dreading telling his brother that his fallen lover was being replaced.

Author woke up to a soft thumping sound coming from the table in his room. Sitting up he looked around the room, over standing by a chair was a dark haired man. Arthur felt his heart glow, Merlin finally returned to him. He was about to stand up, run over to the boy, take him in his arms and force him to swear never to leave him again when the man turned around. All his previous hope was gone as soon as he saw the strangers face. "Who are you?" he asked.

"Oh Prince Arthur your awake sorry I didn't mean to be loud" the stranger bowed "you didn't answer me WHO are YOU and WHAT and YOU DOING HERE" Arthur growled "your father didn't tell you?" Arthur shook his head, angry now, he wanted answer pr he was going to hit something. Hard. Arthur looked at the stranger waiting for an answer, the man swallowed then spoke " my names Greg, I'm your new servant, I'm here to replace Merlin" Arthurs fist was in his face as soon as the words left his mouth.

Callum and Adianna heard the yelling from down the hall. "You think you could replace MY MERLIN" another smashing sound "you're fucked in the head if you think that I would ever think about loving anyone but him" they heard Arthur scream. They reached the doors just as they were hauled open and a boy was throws out, "you're sick" Arthur shoved him into a wall "insane if you think that" Arthur punched the man in the face again, making him bleed and yell Arthur kept punching. "Arthur" Callum yelled trying to get his brothers grip on the boy to loosen "stop it's not his fault" "I don't care if it's his fault or not HE want to replace MERLIN" Arthur growled "no he" Callum started but Adianna cut across him "what would Merlin think if he knew you killed someone for taking a job" she whisper sadly, Arthur let go at the mention of Merlin. The servant boy slipped to the ground, stood up and ran for his life. Arthur sank to the ground, bringing his knees up to his chest Arthur cried. Callum and Adianna sat with him. "I never got to say goodbye" he whispered before falling into a deep sleep.

Morgona sat on the bed , brushing hair out of a sleeping Arthurs face, "he needs a proper goodbye" she said "your right" Callum's face fell "but we don't know where Merlin's body is" he groaned punching a wall. They had searched for days and nights for their friend's body but never found anything. Something in Adianna head clicked " No but I know someone who know more than their letting on" she said turning for the door "where are you going?" Callum stood in her way "I'm going to find Merlins body, he's as good as my brother and you've seen what this is doing to Arthur, he still doesn't fully believe Merlins dead, he just thinks he's left him" she wrapped her arms around his neck "please let me do this" "but" "I'll be fine I promise" she kissed his neck "just be back before dark ok" he insisted "ok" she reached for the door handle " Callum stay with Arthur he's going to be a mess when he wakes up" Callum nodded as Adianna left the room.

"Uther" Adianna yelled as she barged into whatever room Uther spent his time in, she never took any notice and it usually gave her a sickly feeling she just couldn't remember why. "Adianna" Uther turned and signalled for everyone to leave the room, when they were alone her turned back to her "what can I do for you?" "well you can cut the crap for one thing" "what" "where's Merlins body and I know that you know so don't lie, you just want to keep him from Arthur for some sick disgusting disturbing reason" she spat at him "I don't " "that would be lying wouldn't it" Uther sighed "fine I know where he is" "tell me" Adianna smiled as Uther gave her directions to the place. She left the room and rode out of the city.

One the other side of the castle Arthur stirred in his sleep, Callum watched Adianna ride out the city from his window, Uther signalled for his own private men to follow her, Morgona woke up screaming and a soft whimpering noise come from behind a wall.
